I can load a project/solution in VS2015 but NOT VS2017 with the following error.

 

error  : Unable to read the project file "xxxx.vcxproj
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Professional\Common7\IDE\VC\VCTargets\Platforms\x64\PlatformToolsets\Intel C++ Compiler 17.0\ImportBefore\Intel.Libs.IPP.Intel C++ Compiler 17.0.targets(75,32): A numeric comparison was attempted on "$(IPPMajorVersion)" that evaluates to "" instead of a number, in condition "$(IPPMajorVersion) > 7".

Anyone from Intel have a response? This has completely stopped me building my projects in VS2017 15.3.3

Sadly, running the installer repair did not fix the issue.  I eventually turned OFF IPP integration in Visual Studio and added the IPP libraries manually.
